From fae9ca791507876c3ccaa8ab686b2ce42dc7a560 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann Date: Fri, 29 Feb 2008 15:16:48 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] [POWERPC] spufs: synchronize IRQ when disabling There is a small race between the context save procedure and the SPU interrupt handling, where we expect all interrupt processing to have finished after disabling them, while an interrupt is still being processed on another CPU. The obvious fix is to call synchronize_irq() after disabling the interrupts at the start of the context save procedure to make sure we never access the SPU any more during an ongoing save or even after that. Thanks to Benjamin Herrenschmidt for pointing this out.
